So due to mental health and family issues in school, i ended up getting bad grades for both maths and physics. I want to add that i do throughly enjoy these subjects though, and i have the passion there.
I took a break from education and now i am 20 applying to uni this year.
There is currently a foundation year which would accept me with my grades for astrophysics. I know that the foundation year is more ‘laid back’ as it covers the physics needed for higher level education, but my worry is that i will get there and i will just be so behind everyone else and look stupid.
I applied to something else for uni that i feel comfortable in, but i am unsure if i stay in that comfort zone or if i try to pursue something i am passionate about, i feel like i will regret it if i don’t, but i also don’t want to waste my time and end up feeling worse.
What are your opinions? Anyone else here who sucked at those subjects but ended up enjoying the course ?
